In Auburn, New York on Tuesday night, a 28-year-old driver crashed the car he was driving into a tree. He was reportedly playing "Pokémon GO" while behind the wheel. It was the first instance of a major car crash while playing the new game. The Auburn Police Department issued a similar warning to that of the NYPD, which insisted that players not drive cars while playing the game.

We've said it before, we'll say it again— please, please don't play "Pokémon GO" while you're driving. Just like driving while texting, or driving while blindfolded, or driving while not paying attention to driving, driving while playing "Pokémon GO" is ridiculously dangerous.

We get it, we do. The urge to fill that commute time with Pokémon capture is strong. Maybe now is the time to look into a carpool option? Or how about the train? No matter what you do, please stay safe out there. "Pokémon GO" is a great, new, fascinating social experience of a game. Please stay around to keep playing it with us!
